Blame it on mom’s sweet potato casserole or Aunt Millie’s famous sugar cookies, but there’s just something about the holidays that makes us toss all of our good intentions out the window and overindulge in enough goodies to send our insides into a state of constant turmoil. The good news? Adding a digestive enzyme supplement to the menu can help ease holiday indigestion without bringing the festivities to an end.

Found naturally in raw foods, enzymes play a key role in the digestive process by helping to break down the food we eat so that the body can absorb its valuable nutrients. The problem, however, is that cooking our food destroys those natural enzymes, so our bodies lack the tools necessary for complete digestion. Not only that, but heavily processed foods and those made with refined sugars and white flour (such as those yummy holiday baked goods) are also depleted of natural enzymes. As a result, the digestive process slows down and undigested food remains in the intestines longer, which can contribute to everything from heartburn and indigestion to gas, bloating and other digestive issues.

Taking a natural digestive enzyme supplement is the key to surviving the holidays with your digestive health intact. Experts recommend a multi-enzyme blend made with plant-derived enzymes, which are effective over a broader range of pH levels in the body and thus provide more complete support. If you have a particularly sensitive stomach, choose an enzyme supplement with soothing herbal ingredients such as ginger root and marshmallow, as well as amino acids (including L-glutamine and N-acetyl D-glucosamine) for added intestinal lining support.

Targeted enzyme blends are also available to help address specific conditions such as heartburn, gas and bloating, and even lactose intolerance with fast-acting herbs and nutraceuticals. So this year before you head out for the first round of holiday festivities, don’t forget to give yourself the gift of good digestion and take your enzymes.
